Force is essential to perform work. When the point of application of the force gets displaced then force is said to have performed work.

Work is scalar physical quantity. Where as Force and displacement are vector quantities.

So the scalar product of force and displacement gives the amount of work done.

Thus the work is got by the product of magnitude of force and the resolved component of the displacement in the direction of application of force.
